L A COUNTY SPEAKS.

At a mass meeting Of the citizens of
Pulaski county, held at the courthouse,
in Waynesville, last Monday, the fol-
lowing resolutions were adopted:
Whereas, The future growth and
prosperity of the great state of Mis-
souri, depend on a strict adherence to
the principles of the constitution by
the executive and legislative branches
of our state government; and,
Whereas, The democratic party of
Missouri stands pledged to a faithful
and honest enforcement of the consti-
tuition, both in spirit and In letter, in
so legislatlng as to protect the people
from unjust railroad extortion and the
abuses of corporate power; therefore
be it,
Resolved, That the democracy OF
Pulaski county, in mass meeting assem-
bled most earnestly indorse the wise al d
patriotic action of Gov. Marmaduke in
calling an extra session Of the legisla-
ture for the purposes in said call NEIL
toned and, further,
Resolved, That we heartily indorse
the course pursued by our representa-
tive, Hon. H. l.. Warren, in which he
has shown himself, by his vote and
voice, q rue servant of the people,
rather than a dupe of the lobby and
tool of the railroads; and, further,
Resolved, That we regret that F. NJ
Mansfield, our state senator, was un-
able, by reason of sickness, to have bis
vote recorded on the side of the peo-
pie in the great fight OF the last session
of the legislature between the people
| and the democratic party on the one
| side aud the combined railroad enemies
of the people and a ~disgraceful lobby
| on the other.

THE SENATORIAL ELECTION.

Everybody will regret that the
necessity has arisen for the resignation
of Senator Harmon. 1t was hoped
that his health would permit him to be
at the extra session, but that at last
was m~anifestly injudicious, and faith
full in this as in other things the sena-
tor has made way for another who IAN
actively attend to the duties OF the
Office. As is elsewhere pointed out, a
pair would have done no good, and
in the event of the failure of the passage
of an adequate railroad law by a single
vote, there would have been cause for
regret if not room for reproach. so
Senator Harmon has acted wisely.
In the nomination of Samuel +.
Sparks, Esq, of Warrensburg, to be
his successor, the convention also did
well. Mr.. Sparks stands in the front
rank of the legal profession in john
son county. He is young and full OF
life and vigor. He has a genial and
pleasant disposition, which fits him adj
mirably for making a popular legisla-
tor, and he is in thorough accord with
the views of Senator Harmon upon the
question of railroad legislation, whose
course he has, naturally, carefully OBJ
served.
This is as it should be. He will @
to the extra session, therefore, thor
oughly imbued with the Importance OF
the legislation to be considered, and
determined to do nothing that shall
cause the constituency which has SO
warmly applauded Senator Harmon
to regret that he has been made hi
successor.
While the democrats have taken the
initiative in naming MI. Sparks, be
cause it would not do to run any risks
as to the standing of the candidate
upon the subject of railroad legislation,
yet there is no partisan question in
volved, and every citizen who want
the rights OF the people conserved
without invasion OF those of the rail
roads, should 60 to the polls, mex
Thursday, and vote for MIR. Sparks.
